Okay fellow Chicago racing fans....who is going to win the riding title?
Guidry, Emigh, or (in a long shot) somebody else?
I like them both, so I hope they both do well.

Mark has always been a class act, from the first time I met him hot walking a horse on the shedrow for my mom at age 12!! He asked me with that twinkle in his eye "Who do you think you are leading big ole horse around?" lol We have had some very good jocks from our neck of the woods but none as nice. And he would get on some of the craziest back in the day. But my first crush was Randy Romeo when his dad and my mom used to race agianst each other. Gosh he sure was cute back then.

I love the Guid too. Sorry to see him go, but at least it's on his terms.
I remember him flyin way wide around the final turn in the '05 Derby on Buzzards Bay.... I thought he had it won, but Buzzard flattenend out.

Here's to him hopefully humbling Carlos Silva (I hate him because of the underachieving Twins pitcher of the same name), Bridgemohan, Houghton, etc.

That guy was ridiculous at times last year.

Always liked the Guid and think he can still ride.
